《青春,不絕於耳的哀愁與愛戀》
榮獲普林茨獎、美國石牆圖書獎等各項大獎,Goodreads佳評如潮,不可錯過的必讀作品!
亞里斯多德不太會游泳,丹堤是游泳好手;亞里斯多德不太愛說話,總是沉著臉,丹堤則個性開朗大方;丹堤的腦袋裡充滿詩句和對藝術的熱愛,亞里斯多德則時常想到他在坐牢的哥哥,兩個完全不一樣的靈魂,在泳池畔相遇了。 那個夏天,他們分享讀的書,交換對事情的不同看法,亞里斯多德羨慕丹堤的家,也喜歡他的家人,丹堤也慢慢在亞里斯多德身上找到自己沒有的特質。在一次車禍意外,亞里斯多德救了差點被卡車撞上的丹堤,丹堤因為自責與內疚好一陣子不敢再來找他,兩人的距離逐漸拉開。丹堤搬走後他們持續通信,而亞里斯多德慢慢感受到,他和丹堤之間不一樣的友誼…。
作者班傑明‧亞爾‧薩恩斯精確地描繪出青少年成長時遇到的疑惑和內心的衝突,亞里斯多德和他的家人間看似鬆散實則緊密的真摯情感令人動容,尤其當他發現,爸媽其實比他還更了解自己的心,甚至比他想得還要勇敢,鼓勵他誠實面對自己的感情。宇宙的秘密是什麼?亞里斯多德最終找到了答案,而答案遠比他想得還要近,還要簡單。
This Printz Honor Book is a “tender, honest exploration of identity” (Publishers Weekly) that distills lyrical truths about family and friendship.
Aristotle is an angry teen with a brother in prison. Dante is a know-it-all who has an unusual way of looking at the world. When the two meet at the swimming pool, they seem to have nothing in common. But as the loners start spending time together, they discover that they share a special friendship—the kind that changes lives and lasts a lifetime. And it is through this friendship that Ari and Dante will learn the most important truths about themselves and the kind of people they want to be.
* "A tender, honest exploration of identity and sexuality, and a passionate reminder that love—whether romantic or familial—should be open, free, and without shame." (Publishers Weekly, starred review)
* "Authentic teen and Latino dialogue should make it a popular choice." (School Library Journal, starred review)
* "Meticulous pacing and finely nuanced characters underpin the author's gift for affecting prose that illuminates the struggles within relationships." (Kirkus Reviews, starred review)
"Sáenez writes toward the end of the novel that “to be careful with people and words was a rare and beautiful thing.” And that’s exactly what Sáenez does—he treats his characters carefully, giving them space and time to find their place in the world, and to find each other...those struggling with their own sexuality may find it to be a thought-provoking read." (Booklist)
"Sáenz has written the greater love story, for his is the story of loving one’s self, of love between parents and children, and of the love that builds communities, in addition to the deepening love between two friends." (VOYA)
"Ari’s first-person narrative—poetic, philosophical, honest—skillfully develops the relationship between the two boys from friendship to romance." (The Horn Book)
"Primarily a character- and relationship-driven novel, written with patient and lyrical prose that explores the boys’ emotional lives with butterfly-wing delicacy."--Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
"Sáenz is a master at capturing the conversation of teens with each other and with the adults in their lives." (Library Media Connection, Recommended)
"This book took my breath away. What gorgeous writing, and what a story! I loved both these boys. And their parents! Don't we all wish we had parents like theirs? The ending - and the way it unfolded - was so satisfying. I could go on and on...suffice it to say I will be highly recommending it to one and all. I'm sure I'll reread it myself at some point. I hated having it end." (James Howe, Author of Addie on the Inside)
"I’m absolutely blown away. This is Saenz's best work by far...It’s a beautiful story, so beautifully told and so psychologically acute! Both Ari and Dante are simply great characters who will live on in my memory. Everything about the book is absolutely pitch perfect...It’s already my favorite book of the year!" (Michael Cart, Booklist columnist and YALSA past president)
